Rotting Produce
Well, well, well, looks like we have a bit of a rotten situation here. According to recent reports, a whopping 20% of produce and fruit in the USA is never sold and ends up rotting away. Now, call me crazy, but that seems like a pretty wasteful system to me. I mean, have you seen the price of avocados these days?

We could start donating excess food to local food banks or soup kitchens. Or we could start buying produce that’s less than perfect. Whatever the solution, it’s clear that we need to start doing something about this issue. It isn’t fair, and it most certainly isn’t right for this to happen.
